2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||

2007 | 4dr SUT 292-horsepower 4.6L V8 6-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
The seats are much improved over older explorers. You can ride for 4 hours and not feel tired when you get out of the truck. I have heated leather, which I recommend. The heat is in the lumbar, as well as seat bottom. Very nice seats. see full Ford Explorer Sport Trac review |

So bad I can't drive it much more than the 4 miles to and from work. The front seats are so hard that the first couple times I drove it I couldn't figure out why my feet were so cold. Because the circulation below my knees was being cutoff. I have tried extra cushions for the seat bottom and I have found something that really helps, but on longer drives, combined with the firm ride - bring your Advil. see full Ford Explorer Sport Trac review |

The rear seats sit tall so there is a lot of leg room. Once again this does not seem like an econobox see full Hyundai Elantra review |
